Thanks Keith! Can't take credit for the top of the bags being matched to
the tank - my painter suggested that. Good call on his part! My V7 Sport
will probably end up with a red frame also (but stock black tank and
toolboxes). Red is my favorite color - can you tell? :-)
My '69 is right foot shift and it really hasn't been a problem until
recently. It was my only bike (except for brief Morini and Cagiva
ownership) since '97 and I quickly acclimated to it. But now I have to
really concentrate on left foot shifting (luckily same shift pattern)
with "Sophia" and then right foot again when I take the '69 out for a
spin. Then sooner or later the 'Sport with a left foot and "backwards"
shifting will be roadworthy and the plot will thicken further...
Cheers,

Charlie, Boy did that V7 Special come out fantastik! I especially love how you matched the paint on the top of the saddle bag with the tank, sweet! The red frame is slowly growing on me. Really came out great, well done! John, Your 67 V700 looks awesome too! Is that a full restoration? Sharp! What's it like riding a right foot shifter/left foot brake? Must get confusing at times. |
